We all Drank the Kool-Aid!

Hey Everyone… I hope you are all doing well!

Well as I am sure you all know by now there is a very interesting virus going around the APB Alumnae Vancouver Chapter! It seems that several of us have caught the Pregnancy virus (Hehehe). Of course I am just being silly we are all thrilled to be having babies it is just such a coincidence that we are all going to be having kids so close together. Natalie D just had her little baby boy last month and Carrie, Melanie and myself are all also going be adding to our families in the next few months. We all went out for coffee the other day to catch up and talk and we snapped a few pictures so I figured I would share.

Unfortunately the lighting was really bad so the pics didn’t turn out very well, but you get the idea!

Rush 2012: APB Alumnae Dinner

Hi ladies!

The active chapter had their Rush week back in September (I'm just late posting about it), and the PG Alumnae were invited to a few events. We joined the local girls on their hike to Shane Lake (Chiara, Cheryl Abraham (Wilson) and myself), as well as hosting the Alumnae dinner.

About 13 pledges made it to the end of Rush week, and were invited to the by-invitation-only dinner at my house. 13 or 15 active girls were present as well - I'm surprised my tiny house was able to hold all 28-ish of us! Representing the Alumnae were Chiara Mann, Amanda Frost, Janice Montbriand and myself.

I've included some pictures of the event in this posting. 10 girls pledged this year. Regretfully, the active chapter was unable to find a member to "revive" a branch of the family tree, but it remains in their plans for the future.

Heather is reading the poems about Sisterhood that I had put on the walls. I also had bios from Gina and Robyn - both former presidents, with words of wisdom to the new pledges.
